❝ I’m going to tell you something: thoughts are never honest. Emotions are. ❞

DAMIEN JACOB FLINT really is the spitting image of RICHARD HARMON, right? For someone only 24 years old, DAMIEN has been forced to endure so much. Yeah, that PUREBLOOD has been scraping by at the sanctuary since JUNE, 2028, working as a PATROL GUARD in the DIVISION OF PROTECTION. HE is a CISMAN and is known to be ARGUMENTATIVE and RECKLESS but also ENTHUSIASTIC and KIND. Best of luck surviving through this. ⊰ SAM, 24, EST, THEY/THEM ⊱ (Raised as Ysabeau’s fraternal twin, but is actually the result of an affair Marcus had with another woman.)

♡ CHARACTER PARALLELS — Ron Weasley ( Harry Potter ) + Lilo ( Lilo & Stitch ) + Anna ( Frozen ) + Bucky Barnes/Winter Soldier ( MCU ) + Donna Noble ( Doctor Who ) + Peter Quill ( Marvel Comics ) + Eragon ( Eragon ) + Lorelai Gilmore ( Gilmore Girls ) !!

LIL FACTS AND WHAT NOT ( TWs: Forced Parental Abandonment,  )

FORCED PARENTAL ABANDONMENT TW. no but ok. i’m in a weird place right now, so i’m sorry if this doesn’t make sense, but! basically! marcus flint had an affair with damien’s mother. damien was born not too far from ysabeau, so the flints raised them as fraternal twins. the reason damien’s mother didn’t fight against that? she had two other kids, and knew the flints could make their lives a living hell if she didn’t do something. she had to choose between her kids, which makes me so sad, but yeah. she knew damien would be well cared for, as the heir to the flint family, and so she believed she was letting him have a good life, even though she’d never get a chance to be part of it. nowadays, she lives in canada again, in b.c. specifically, and damien knows NOTHING about his true parentage. still thinks mrs. flint is his mom. it makes me emo ok !!!!!! pls be emo with me :(

has adhd and it showed when he was a kid but i bet that they were all like “boys will be boys” and let him get away with shit because he was the heir and what not. ofc though, they wouldn’t let him get away with being kind to the wrong people, though. and though he was energetic and quite good at getting intro trouble, damien was SUCH a sweet kid. like a sweetheart, 100%. a cute ass grin and lil dimples and bright eyes, and like....... i bet people were just!!!!! “aaaaaaw” when they met him. and then he “accidentally” broke all the alarm clocks in their house, and they maybe felt a bit differently.

he loved people!!!!! loved interacting with people, and made friends really, really easily. he made all kinds of friends, really, which his father did NOT approve of. damien didn’t care if you were muggle, muggleborn, squib, halfblood, pureblood, werewolf, etc. if you were nice to him, and didn’t question his illogical plans, he automatically liked you.

in hogwarts, he was sorted intro gryffindor, which, really, shouldn’t have been a surprise to anyone. but still, his dad was far from happy. he was supposed to be the heir!!!!!! the one the flint family could count on!!!!!!! but!!!!!!! like ok so only marcus and mrs flint know that but!!!!!!! he’s the result of an affair and was sorted in mcfucking gryffindor!!!! big yikes from the flints tbh

more on his relationship with his father tbd if someone plays him which...... just saying but...... that would be some good family angst right there!!!!

would kill for ysabeau even tho he knows he probably needs her to kill people for him more than the other way around honestly he wouldn’t be very good at killing BUT inferi????? he’d kill inferi for his twin

mrs flint hmmmmmmmm well. that could also be quite angsty tm! bc i doubt she was full of love for damien but he thought she was his mom so egoijergjergjeroijgerijger it’s sad!!!!!! so sad!!!!! everything is sad!!!!!!!

reckless!!!!!! acts before thinking!!!! in fact, even after acting, he often doesnt think!!!!!

loves arguing rip!!!!! he’s either an aries or a taurus soooooooooo it makes sense, really.

ok but like!!!!!! he’s gay!!!!!! and i’m pretty sure he’s out to everyone so it’s not like?????? news or whatever????? but!!!!!! what’s important IS!!!!!! that i need a romantic connection for him pls and thank you!!!!!!!

SO SWEET. an angle. who says jokes that are like, not good? not offensive; just not funny. but he says them with so much belief and enthusiasm that they make people laugh anyway

gets sayings wrong all the time!!!!!! “flowers don’t attract honey that way” <----- WHAT DOES THAT EVEN MEAN DAMIEN

so enthusiastic omg he’s always down for stuff. probably does things he shouldn’t do because other people are excited about things and he’s like HELL YEAH

pinterest board + connections page + about page are coming soon but i wanted to post this asap!!!

date: october 13, 2028 time: 3:30pm location: Hogwarts grounds, near the (former) quidditch pitch who: nadia zabini && open

The wind whipped against her cheeks as Nadia strode across the grounds—-a far cry from the well-kept lands of her own time at Hogwarts, she still wasn’t quite used to the sort of wildness that had spread over the grounds around the castle, but it did have its perks. Mainly, the small thicket of starthistle she knew to be just on the other side of what used to be the quidditch pitch. And while normally she’d wait, have someone bring her the plant she needed… even she needed a bit of fresh air sometimes, and this way her research wouldn’t have to wait. She stopped as she her destination, stopping down so deft fingers could pluck the plant in question from the grass. Though she was focused on her task, her mind remained alert, and she glanced over her shoulder, sensing a presence behind her.

“If you’re going to lurk, make yourself useful and hand me a vial. I’d like to get back to the castle and get started on the next round of trials.”

Damien was patrolling. He was patrolling quite a lot, lately. Which, really, made a lot of sense considering the role he had chosen for himself during the crisis. Still, as much as he liked to think of himself as brave, bold and courageous, he had to admit that being alone outside with a chill wind making him feel cold down to his bones (ok, so maybe his fear had something to do with that, too) wasn’t an ideal situation for him. The atmosphere of it all did remind him of something, though. When he was sixteen, he had snuck out of the Flint residence to meet up with one of his “secret” muggleborn friends to go see a muggle movie; that movie had the exact same vibe as the Hogwarts did at that moment, and Damien couldn’t help but hum the theme song of the movie, which’s name he could not remember, as he looked into the forest. So deep into his thoughts, he didn’t even realize there was someone else close by until Nadia’s voice brought him out of his train of thoughts.

“Sorry. Got lost in my thoughts and what not; I didn’t mean to bother you” he said with a small laugh, shaking his head and then running a hand through his hair. “But seriously, though, does anyone walk around with vials? I mean, unless they’re planning on doing something very specific that requires the use of a vial? Uh. Maybe a potioneer. Or a vial-person. A pharmacist, perhaps?”
